No, the message about the tainted module is just notifying you that the 
kernel module is not signed with one of the keys with which the kernel 
is happy. It has nothing to do with functionality.


I might be way wrong but if I were to guess, I'd say that the ath10k 
module you try to use is not compatible any more with the firmware blobs 
that are now available for that chipset. If you can , I suggest trying 
to test the newer kernel shipped by Elrepo in the kernel-ml package.
